We tried to design a house where it would bevisible from the outside that the spaces are dedicated to the fine arts. The composition of rigid cubic volumes is abstracted by the smooth white surface. In contrast to the surrounding buildings, it is clear that something new is happening inside. The open layout offers bright spaces that work as a "creative playground".

There were originally three buildings from different periods on the site. The removed pavilion of the former shooting range , a substation, and a newly added elevator serving the adjacent historic building. In addition to the client's requirements, a range of limiting factors shaped the design. The construction was defined by the necessity to maintain the full operation of the distribution station during the building process. The proposed compact monolithic reinforced concrete structure proved to be the optimal solution, enabling the bridging of the station and eliminating impacts on the statics of the historical building’s gable wall and the elevator shaft. Another constraint was the need to uphold hygiene standards of surrounding housing and ensure the entry of daylight into the deep layouts of the studios without side windows.
The horizontal displacement of the individual floors allowed the creation of skylights. The final silhouette was shaped based on a study of daylight and sun exposure to neighbouring residential units.
The articulated orthogonal volume is abstracted by the smooth white brushed plaster and large-scale frameless glazing. These are the only elements that are outside the normal building production.
Given the budget, the rest of the building is utilitarian and deliberately mundane. The interior concrete surfaces of basic quality are finished with white paint and epoxy coating. All infrastructure is connected to existing utilities. The emphasis was on the quality of the space, certainly not on the material design. Although the spaces are not large, they are extremely airy in their lightness. A nice experience was the open approach of the client, who was not afraid of an unconventional concept. The Faculty of Education thus got good architecture at standard costs.
The fact that the students spend much more time in the studios than the teaching requires is the greatest praise for me.
